check your brake fluid level for the brake warning light, i'm not sure about your battery warning light.....maybe loose connection or alternator going bad... hope this helps:)

ahhhh, check brake fluid
|
same was happening to me, my brake fluid was right at the min line, and from time to time it would come up, well i finally got around to adding brake fluid, and no more brake light :cool:

Battery AND brake Light??
It could very well be your alternator.

*chuckle*...i've seen this too many times. It's likely to be the alternator.

def sounds like an alternator issue...when my brake like was only while driving, i was reading around the org about it, i came across alot of posts of both the battery and brakes being on....a simple search and youll be on your way :)

once it starts sucking your battery, you better hope your battery's strong, or it'll die and you're SOL. In addition, even after you get the alternator replaced, better hope the battery's in good condition that it'll recharge itself!
